Legends of Addisleigh Park

About this event

 

You may have never heard of Addisleigh Park - but you certainly heard of those who lived there. Jazz musicians like The Count, Ella and Lena. Jackie Robinson and his Dodger teammate Roy Campanella. On one block we have Heavyweight Champion Joe Lewis, James Brown, and Babe Ruth. The parties were legendary as well. Today the neighborhood is just as beautiful as it was back then.

 

Lunch is likely at a local Haitian restaurant. Depending on the size of the group, we may do a pre-order to avoid a long wait. Alternatively there is Campeon de los Pollos.

 

The ride is 31 miles with 650 feet of elevation. Steepest grade is only 4.4. Ride starts and ends at Grand Army Plaza. Bring your usual bike stuff including a sturdy lock and cash for lunch.
